Microsoft clinches deal to settle CISPE antitrust complaint

Microsoft avoided an EU probe with a multi-million-euro settlement with CISPE. Addressing Oct. 1 terms, Brad Smith praised the resolution. CISPE members, including Amazon, can use Microsoft software on Azure at equivalent prices, with past losses compensated. The complaint to the European Commission excluded Google Cloud, AliCloud.
